Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Dear Dan, From a personal pov, I too was pleased with the Iowa results. From a wider perspective, though, do you think the US is ready for a black President? I would be absolutely delighted were he to be elected, but can’t realistically see it happening. fa " Show me a sane man and I will cure him for you.

Dear Alice, I find myself continuously frustrated by my own inability to ground my views on any philosophical bedrock - and, if one cannot do that, then why bother? Absent certainty, there is only nihilism, and I can't retain interest absent certainty. I'm having another go at Heidegger, but can already see, as I thought I saw before, that he cannot (in Being and Time) avoid, like the others, starting at the roof or holding himself up by his own hair. One not only must start with common sense, but it seems that one cannot transcend it. Jung taught that, I think, but I don't like it. On another note, am most pleased about Iowa results, and looking forward to almost a year of my very favorite spectator sport.
